Welcome to Exploratory space-time data analysis project!

The spdyn package implements exploratory space-time data analysis measures, that help elucidate the degree to which the time evolution (or dynamics) of a process is spatially dependent.

The spdyn package, currently under development, seeks to implement a set of methods to perform exploratory
data analysis on space-time data. Currently, it only implements functions to compute Spatial Markov Matrices
as suggested by Rey (2001), and a set of related measures, as the mean first passage times and the estimation of the
ergodic distributions of the Spatial Markov processes. Further developments will include
the implemantation of statistical tests to asses if the Spatial Markov Matrices really differ from a non-spatially
conditioned Markov Matrix, or classic Markov process.
Also, it will implement other measures of space-time dynamics developed by Rey (2001) and the dynamic LISA measures
proposed by Rey, Murray and Anselin (2011).
